Thu, 28 Mar 2013 12:51:18 +0000http://www.drvino.com/?p=11802#comment-411292[…] But in recent years at Hearth and the Terroirs, he has become known for putting together the fearsomely independent wine lists that serve as part drinks list, part manifesto, and part education, complete with punchy, page-long essays. The wines of the Jura, the wines of Chateau Musar in Lebanon and other food-friendly wines from off-the-beaten path dominate his lists. He’s so convinced of the virtues of sherry that he gives away free glasses before 7 PM at the Terroir wine bars. He was a key early adapter of keg wine/wine on tap. Late last year he told me that he thinks Australian wines will be the next big thing. […]

Fri, 07 Dec 2012 01:46:38 +0000http://www.drvino.com/?p=11802#comment-402922Bravo. I’ve always found it ridiculous that I’m applauded for placing a Corton Charlemagne on the dinner table and questioned when a bottle of Giaconda is there.

Hand made wines. Small batch. Old vines. From any country in the world, it’s a recipe for deliciousness.

Trust yourself. Taste for yourself. Quit being lemmings.

Great article Paul.

Wed, 05 Dec 2012 19:06:52 +0000http://www.drvino.com/?p=11802#comment-402769Good to see Paul recognizing what Australia has been doing so well for so long. It’s incredible to think that the excellence of the country’s viticulture and winemaking skills have been overlooked by so many in the trade in their rush to stereotype the country’s wines. It’s also good to finally see the end of the constant harping and bashing of the country’s wines. Such ignorance has frankly grated my grits…. for far too long.

Wed, 05 Dec 2012 16:29:47 +0000http://www.drvino.com/?p=11802#comment-402747I believe there are too many “followers” out there that because they have been “told” Australia makes XYZ style and told that Australian wines are not selling therefore I shouldn’t buy/sell the wines.

Overall many (primarily bulk and South Australia) wines went after a globalized or God forbid “Americanized” palate, that is a fact. Winemakers/vignerons became complacent in their ways.

That said the majority of the great classic wines have not changed. Great wines are produced everywhere in the world and poor wine is produced everywhere in the world.

@Joeshico – Compete with is interesting what do you mean by that? I found that many consumers who consumed a fair amount of inexpensive Australian fruit-driven wines bought into the negativity toward Oz by many retailers and the press and the overnight rise of Argentina was coinciding with this trend. Interesting wines everywhere and nonsense the same.

Wed, 05 Dec 2012 16:13:01 +0000http://www.drvino.com/?p=11802#comment-402746The landscape for Aussie wine is def changing in US. Just this week (in prep for our Next Chapter Aussie Wine event in SF), we were listing out new small producer brands that are coming into the US market. There is a growing collection of groovy, boutique brands that are finding homes with importers and testing out 1 or 2 key markets in US (NY & CA). A lot more diversity on offer and more coming over the next year+.

Wed, 05 Dec 2012 15:14:16 +0000http://www.drvino.com/?p=11802#comment-402739Very Interesting. Explains why I can never get into Aussie wines. Have found some decent and one or two very good ones, but never found enough to convince me that Australia can compete with Europe, South America or the USA.
